Got all the wheels mounted up and I can say I’m still as happy with them as I was when I first seen them.

Found another cracked chub, but I grabbed a spare set of HR chubs and knuckles from another awesome member on here!

Only a few things left to do! Clear body and cvds. If they don’t release any soon I’ll be doing the ascender cvd mod for sure.

Just picked up a venture last night! It’s in transit as we speak. Can’t wait to get it running.

Initial upgrades:
Hot Bodies 4 link suspension conversion
Esc will be switched to the hobbywing 1080wp
Will run the stock motor until it dies.
Servo is a protek 100t
Lcg battery mount

Unsure about a tire/wheel combo. I got the charcoal body and I’d like to stay away from black wheels as it already is dark.

It cracked behind the screws (closer to the inside of the axle, I will take a picture of it once I swap it for the hot racing ones.

It most likely broke due to the fact it runs 3s a lot on a 3300kv brushless motor lol. I’m not easy on it my any means.

Some photos of the HR chubs and knuckles swapped on.

The chub broke right it in lol it was only staying in place because of the knuckle. Shouldn’t have to worry about that too much now!


Broken





All swapped out with new parts
